Abstract

Abstract

Based on meeting the requirement of ground bearing capacity, the allowable range expression of anti-overturning safety factor is derived. The relative parameters are expressed with base width and the relation graphs of conversion factor are presented, and then the cross-section of retaining wall is designed directly by combining the stability requirement of anti-sliding. The calculated result shows that this method makes the design simple and reliable. It may be a reference for engineers.
